« la station était davantage écoutée par les femmes : 23.3% contre 20.09% pour les hommes. »

Female audience has played a fundamental role in the Radio Luxembourg history since its beginning.

Actually women were the ones who decided the most in the program making

From ’30s to ’60 most of them were at home all day long, so the programs on the radio were developed to interest them

Their power on decision making about programs was so strong that even publicizing agency, choose them as a parameter to decide when presenting their campaigns.
